Abstract: The present disclosure relates to connector assemblies for use with multi-conductor connection cables. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a flexible angle configurable boot assembly for use with a multi-conductor cable where the angle configurable boot defines an area for receiving the multi-conductor cable for positioning the cable at a known angle and/or orientation with respect to the flexible angle configurable boot in at least one location, and where the angle configurable boot may be coupled to the cable connector in one or a plurality of alternate orientations. The present disclosure also relates to a process for installing such a flexible angle configurable boot assembly.

Abstract: A housing of a fiber optic connector such as an MT-RJ connector has a greater surface area and ridges for improved handling and grasping. A door is provided on a fiber optic connector socket to block light leakage from the socket. The door is compact and does not interfere with neighboring devices while closed. The connector has a housing that centers the ferrule and keeps it in a position for precise alignment with the opposing ferrule. A pin retainer is designed to allow insertion and removal of alignment pins in the field without the need for removing the connector from the fiber optic, so that male connectors can be connected to female connectors and vice-versa.

Abstract: A fiber optic connector in such as a male MT-RJ connector has a ferrule fixed to the housing. Ferrule-to-ferrule alignment is provided by the floating ferrule in the mating female MT-RJ connector. A field-installable connector includes a field termination unit with fiber stubs and index matching gel for receiving the cut ends of optical fibers. The fiber stubs extend into the ferrule of the connector. A loopback test unit includes a ferrule and housing like those of a standard connector. A fiber loop has both ends lodged in the fiber bores of the ferrule so that the loop will connect the transmitter of a transceiver to the receiver of the same transceiver when the unit is engaged in the connector of the transceiver. The fiber loop is held within a boot attached to the housing or ferrule so that the entire unit can be conveniently installed and removed, and so that numerous loopback testers can be used simultaneously even when the device under test has numerous closely-spaced transceivers.

Abstract: An optoelectronic assembly for providing bidirectional data transmission between fiber optic means (e.g., a pair of optical fibers) and an electrical circuit member (e.g., a printed circuit board). The assembly includes a two-part housing with first and second receptacle sections designed for accommodating a pair of optoelectronic devices. One of these devices serves as a receiver and the other a transmitter. These devices are aligned within the housing and electrically connected to a substrate member (e.g., ceramic) also positioned within the housing. The substrate provides the necessary electrical functioning and is in turn electrically connected (e.g., via conductor pins) to the described circuit member, this connection occurring through an opening within the bottom portion of the two-part housing. The assembly is designed for coupling with individual optical fiber members or, alternatively with a common duplex connector having optical fibers therein.
